    Well done 2SK. Good result.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Here's some of the red stags we shot this roar, all shot on DOC land.



    We could have made absolute pigs of ourselves, as there were stags everywhere!!!! but we only took one or two deer each. For the trip I spent 4 days going hard core, hunting hard out early morning to night and I saw a total of 19 deer in those 4 days. I shot the big 11 pointer at 436 yards late on day 3 which was awesome! I've put a lot of work into improving my longrange shooting skills and I really wanted to shoot one from a good distance this year as every other stag I've shot during a roar has been within 5m to 20m, so getting one at 436 yards added a new dimension to my hunt.

    I then went into cruise mode and only went for the odd short walk for the other 6 days, where I saw another 3 stags, but choose not to shoot anymore as we had done okay for ourselves. We got heaps of cool video footage of the trip which will eventually be made into a DVD.
